The Kent State University’s Didactic Program in Dietetics Mission is to provide students with a broad general education with a strong foundation in nutrition/dietetics and the sciences. The emphasis will be on providing a program that integrates theory, research, and application of knowledge to the profession of dietetics resulting in successful students and graduates for all backgrounds, including race, ethnicity, national origin, gender/gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, disability, size, socioeconomic status, and age.

Goal #1 –  To prepare individuals to become registered dietitians through the combination of their undergraduate degree program followed by successful completion of a supervised practice experience and the registration examination.

Objective

At this time the PTA Program at Kent State University Ashtabula and East Liverpool Information Sessions are moving to one-on-one appointments with the Program Director, Tiffany Kiphart.
